Approximately 130 Soldiers, Family Members, Retirees and Civilian volunteers joined about 60 Korean volunteers Saturday morning for the first-ever Make A Difference Day in Korea at Deog Dong San park in Pyeongtaek.
USA Weekend Magazine created Make a Difference Day about 18 years ago as national day of helping others -- a celebration of neighbors helping neighbors, according to their web site, www.usaweekend.com/diffday/aboutmadd.html, www.usaweekend.com/diffday/aboutmadd.html. Make A Difference Day is an annual event that takes place on the fourth Saturday of every October.
The volunteers spent the morning picking up trash, cleaning out storm drains and ditches and performing beautification projects around the park.
Following the work session, volunteers enjoyed lunch and a traditional Korean dance performance by students from Shin Han High School.

What a difference a century makes!
Here are some statistics for the Year 1909 :
The average life expectancy was 47 years.
Fuel for the Model T was sold in drug stores only.
Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub.
Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone.
There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles
of paved roads.
The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.
The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower!
The average wage in 1909 was 22 cents per hour.
The average worker made between $200 and $400 per year
A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year,
A dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.
More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME.
The five leading causes of death were:
1. Pneumonia and influenza
2. Tuberculosis
3. Diarrhea
4. Heart disease
5. Stroke
Ninety percent of all doctors had no college education. Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.'
Sugar cost 4 cents a pound, eggs were 14 cents a dozen, coffee was 15 cents a pound.
Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used
Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.
Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their country for any reason.
The American flag had 45 stars.
The population of Las Vegas, Nevada, was only 30.
Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and iced tea hadn't been invented yet.
There was no Mother's Day or Father's Day.
Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write and only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school
Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over the counter at the local corner drugstores. Back then pharmacists said, 'Heroin clears the complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind,regulates the stomach and bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian of health'
Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help.
There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A.
Plus one more sad thought; 95 percent of the taxes we have now did not exist in 1909.
I am now going to forward this to someone else without typing it myself.
It will be sent to others all over the world - all in a matter of seconds!
There's no way to imagine what may be in store for us in another 100 years.
"Sillä minä olen varma siitä,
ettei kuolema eikä elämä,
ei enkelit eikä henkivallat,
ei nykyiset eikä tulevaiset,
ei voimat,
ei korkeus eikä syvyys,
eikä mikään muu luotu
voi meitä erottaa
Jumalan rakkaudesta,
joka on Kristuksessa Jeesuksessa,
meidän Herrassamme"
"Ty jag är viss om att
varken död eller liv,
varken änglar eller andefurstar,
varken något som nu är eller något som skall komma,
varken någon makt i höjden
eller någon makt i djupet,
ej heller något annat skapat
skall kunna skilja oss
från Guds kärlek
i Kristus Jesus,
vår Herre."
"For I am persuaded,
that neither death, nor life,
nor angels, nor principalities,
nor things present, nor things to come,
nor powers,
nor height, nor depth,
nor any other created thing,
will be able to separate us
from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus
our Lord.."
Rom. 8:38-39
Atom and nuclear weapons in use are a force movement.
God power is invisible spiritual power that is not disturbed.
It's like when you dive in water or against waves underwater,
the water reconnects.
Has sun storm, hurricane or nuclear weapon rubbed on God?
No!
/Jouni Niirola
I think this is a mushroom. Wonder about the coral/toothed mushrooms but have not found its match yet.
People from Children's Miracle Network national, Alice 96.5 and Renown Health are all working together to raise money with your help for life-saving treatments for our youngest patients.
The boys differences are apparent here. They've been snoozing all afternoon next to me on the couch while I've been working...increasingly moving in my direction and taking up more of the couch.
For a pregnant mother, one of the best relaxing and healing therapies they could go for is a prenatal massage. While you need to adapt to the body changes and mood swings throughout the pregnancy journey, you do not have to go through them alone. Where you can, give yourself a break and pamper yourself with prenatal massage.

The Power of Psychological Artistry
Standing Out from the Crowd - Creating Your Difference
Being Different - No, Really Different
What You Get On The Workshops?
What Do People Say About The Workshops?
Register Your Place
For more information on the day, please see www.mindsways.com/SMS/ and for a brochure of what the day is about, please look at www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
Over the past 18 Months I have been running these Sleight of Mind Set Workshops throughout the country, and I am really pleased with the feedback, it has been tremendous, please don't just take my word for it, (I am after all biased) please see what people have said by going to www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/
For over twenty five years I have seen how magic can add value to delivery. There are a lot of unknown techniques out there, many of them psychological, that engages and attracts people. The Sleight of Mind Set workshop is all about how you can tap into this rich stream of ideas and "Mind Magic's" enduring popularity. The day looks at two paths running together, one learning the tricks and effects, the other why and how they add value to us.
They start at 10:00 a.m. and finish at 4:30 p.m. For more information about the workshops, please got to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX - OR CLINGING TO THE LID
Many people claim that the answers to creativity, standing out from the crowd and finding solutions to problems is thinking outside the box. Although, I see many people who cling ferociously on to the lid. Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic, as well as the tools and techniques contained within them are definitely off the lid. For more, see the Sleight Of Mind Set page at www.mindsways.com/SMS/Explaining what you can achieve with these tools is wonderful. For me, I find it deeply rewarding when I see and the results that have been created using these tools and techniques. Don't just take my word for it, see What People Say About Us at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/.
The Sleight Of Mind Set day is not just about learning the Mind Magic tricks, (these are quick to learn, but create much to be thought about) what makes it thrilling is what you can build with them for yourself. You can build pieces into your delivery, making this very personal to you. You can take these pieces and use them to ignite a powerful response in others, engaging and involving them in your ideas and what you do. Our focus is around Showing Not Telling which is about illuminating and animating your ideas and concepts. This contributes greatly to leaving people delighted, energized, interested and wanting more.
To find out more about Mind Magic and its uses, please go to www.mindsways.com/SMS/
THE POWER OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
The approach we take is what we call Psychological Artistry and this involves using a blend of psychology, mind magic (or mentalism), personal development and smart thinking ideas. By tapping into people's imagination, curiosity and desire for mystery we can engage people in all different areas. By adding in psychological approaches, this is strengthened. I appreciate that by its very nature, it is not a traditional approach but that is where its power lies.
Psychological Artistry is about blending the world of art and psychology. It's about showing the beautiful flaws in our thinking and how we can use them. It's about magnifying how we all think and giving you the opportunity to change it.
A couple of interesting examples the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please see www.mindsways.com/SMS for these and other incredible videos. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
STANDING OUT FROM THE CROWD - CREATING YOUR DIFFERENCE
This learning works on a number of levels. On the workshops, we look at what Mind Magic reveals about how we think, act and behave. This allows us to understand the environment we're in.
Whilst doing this, we're also tapping into the fact that performing and illustrating illusions holds a deep fascination for people. This is what allows us to stand out from the crowd. Below are a few quotes of what people have said about the workshop:
"A truly inspiring experience is how I'd best describe the Sleight of Mind Set workshop."
"I came away with lots of ideas to create drama and interest in my training delivery."
"The whole group laughed many times and were absolutely fascinated by each technique."
BEING DIFFERENT - NO, REALLY DIFFERENT
This programme is good for anyone looking for something different and to stimulate new styles of thinking. The feedback has definitely been that it has satisfied the thirst for new ideas whilst ticking all of the edutrainment boxes. This programme is for you if you are interested in any of the following:
Human Behaviour & Psychology

Magic & Magicians

for yourself and others. Overall it acts a catalyst for your future development.
It is intended for people who are curious, want to improve how they connect, express and communicate with others. Overall, it is about adding new skills to you and being able to apply the techniques and ideas from Psychological Artistry and Mind Magic to maximise what you do.
MindSways sessions are based on a unique blend of magic, science, psychological artistry, design and smart thinking. All of this allows you to work with individuals, groups and organisations in an original and dynamic way. It also means that by being trained in these psychological subtleties and powerful techniques, you can add a unique twist to your activities.
Our success in life depends critically on two things; our capacity for insight into our own mental world and that of other people. One of the benefits of learning and applying Mind Magic and psychological artistry is that it puts our thinking habits and styles back on our radar. This is only one aspect of the many benefits that people find when they have worked with us over the past few months. For what others have said please take a look at www.mindsways.com/what-people-say/ ;

Anyone can make a difference! Local youth attended the Rising Voices Youth Summit at the newly renovated Flowing Wells Library on Saturday, April 13, 2019 to find out how to get involved with leadership in the library and the community. Youth leaders will presented about how they have made a difference in the community, each in their own way.
Attendees participated in personalized leadership activities and consulted about how Pima County Public Library and the community can further support youth voice and leadership. They networked with peers and found out about opportunities to get involved as a leader in the Tucson community.
These are the boys and girls bathrooms at the Boys and Girls clubs. We used the same paint in both of the bathrooms, but the lighting makes the boys' bathroom look blue and the girls' look purple. Trippy, huh?
Bridge the Difference – and increasing understanding between community and law enforcement, CMPD invited pastors and ministry leaders to hear a call-to-action by Chief of Police, Kerr Putney.
Following the call-to-action, Charlotte Mecklenburg Library gave a short presentation and shared information on how we create opportunity as a community leader and public resource.
